September 30 1989 the day generally regarded as the greatest day in VFL AFL Grand Final history On this day no other word than epic accurately describes the encounter between Geelong and Hawthorn Could the fast and supremely skilled Geelong with the mercurial Gary Ablett running rampant overcome a decade of dominance from the mighty Hawks who to a man were born for the occasion Brutal fierce laced with utter brilliance this was a game for the ages with some of the greatest players of all time plying their skill at the one time With Malcolm Blight steering the Cats and the master Allan Jeans returning from illness the battle went far beyond the boundary line This documentary will feature Dermott Brereton and Mark Yeates who at the first bounce provided a moment that is now football folklore Also reliving this epic day are Robert DiPierdomenico Darrin Pritchard Scott Maginness Bill Brownless Malcolm Blight Andrew Bews John Kennedy Jnr Chris Wittman Greg Madigan and others.
